Vidiots welcomes film icon and award-winning actor Edward James Olmos for a special double feature of highlights from his impressive and expansive 50-year career.

In the powerful, funny, and uplifting classic Stand and Deliver, Olmos delivers one of his most iconic and lauded roles, Jaime Escalante – a determined High School math teacher who sets out to make a difference in the lives of his students. Convinced that his students have potential, he adopts unconventional teaching methods to try and turn gang members and no-hopers into some of the country’s top algebra and calculus students.

This screening is made possible with generous support from Golden Globe Foundation.
